Arab Weather - The latest outputs from numerical computer models indicate that Saudi Arabia will be affected by a high pressure system in the upper atmosphere and the accompanying hot air mass through the lower atmosphere. Consequently, temperatures will gradually rise starting Monday, increasing by the end of the week to be 10-12 degrees Celsius higher than their climatic average.

Temperatures approach 40 degrees Celsius in Riyadh, with hot weather in most areas.

The weather in the coming days will be relatively hot to hot during the day, with maximum temperatures approaching 40 degrees Celsius in the capital, Riyadh, at the end of the week. The weather will remain moderate in the southwestern mountain range (the Kingdom's summer resorts), due to the elevation of these areas above sea level. Winds will be moderate to brisk during the afternoon and evening periods, which will increase the concentration of dust and suspended dust in the atmosphere, especially in the northern regions of the Kingdom.

At night, temperatures drop and the weather tends to be moderate in the late night and early morning hours, while it is pleasant in the southwestern highlands and tends to be cold over the high peaks.

Limited chance of thunderstorms in the far southwest of the Kingdom on Monday.

During Monday afternoon and evening, cumulonimbus clouds will increase over parts of the Asir and Al-Baha highlands, accompanied by thunderstorms of varying intensity, hail, and sudden winds.

And God knows best.
